A perfect homogenous dispersion

Effect on the water surface tensionProSid™ Pellet Pro substantially lowers the water surface tension and promotes the distribution of water in feed. Esters of fatty acids are well known emulsifi ers and surfactants as you can see in this illustration: it shows the perfect homogenous dispersion.

A perfect homogenous dispersion ProSid™ Pellet Pro is a liquid solution based on ester technology. The ester technology enables a perfect homogenous dispersion. Its performance is even better if it is part of our Perstorp Perfect Mixx offer and combined with our robust and highly accurate Cibodoz dosing machine for water and organic solutions.

Standardize the moisture content of your pellets During the production process of compound feed, moisture loss can be a major issue. Moisture loss can increase more than 3%. This has a negative effect on pellet quality and is a major expense. For example: at a feed mill that produces 100,000 ton p/y, a 1% reduction of moisture loss can save up to € 300.000,- per year.

A balanced moisture content for optimal feed quality Pellets that are too dry fall apart and pellets that contain too much moisture tend to take odd shapes, both of which mean a loss of production capacity. The ideal situation: moisture that at mixing level is bound to feed components for a good moisture balance combined with strong mold inhibitor to prevent mold growth.

The solution: ProSid™ Pellet Pro A mold inhibitor and surfactant using the power of esterifi ed propionic acid. • a balanced feed moisture content without the risks of

molds or bacteria• optimize the moisture content of your feed• increased feed pellet quality

Better results thanks to the esterifying technology• secure quality of your product – equal pellets thanks

to homogenous spread• serves as a surfactant – lowers the surface tension

of water• a longer lasting mold inhibiting effect than other

products• shighly concentrated, non-ADR solution

Stay mold-free for longer
